Join us for a cozy, illuminating discussion on a non-pharmacological therapy that might just change the way you manage chronic pain: green light exposure. In this deep dive, we explore how light often a major trigger for migraine sufferers (photophobia) can actually be harnessed as a therapeutic tool. We reveal the fascinating discovery that while colors like white, blue, amber, and red lights may exacerbate migraine headaches, green light exacerbates pain significantly less. In fact, psychophysical assessments indicated that green light was the only color tested that actively decreased pain ratings.We break down the promising results of preliminary clinical trials where patients with migraine and fibromyalgia used green light-emitting diodes (GLED) for 1 to 2 hours daily over 10 weeks.Here’s what the research found:• Migraine Relief: GLED significantly reduced the average number of headache days per month for both episodic and chronic migraine patients. For those with episodic migraine, headache days dropped significantly from 7.9 to 2.4 days per month.• Fibromyalgia Improvement: Exposure to GLED significantly reduced the average pain intensity reported by fibromyalgia patients.• Quality of Life Boost: Beyond reducing pain days, green light exposure resulted in significantly improved secondary outcomes, including the ability to fall asleep and stay asleep and the ability to perform work.• Safety Profile: Critically, the GLED therapy was reported to be safe, with no adverse events or side effects measured in either the migraine or fibromyalgia patient groups. Tune in to discover how this safe, simple light therapy could complement your current treatment plan and offer a refreshing new pathway toward managing your chronic pain.
